Formation of parliamentary ties between China and St. Petersburg
The legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg began to pay attention to its international activities to establishing contacts with cities and regions of the People's Republic of China from the very beginning of its activity. This was largely facilitated by the twinning ties that existed between the city on the Neva and China since the days of the Soviet Union. Through the efforts of the St. Petersburg deputies, relations with representatives of the authorities, including the parliamentary structures of China, as well as Chinese business, began to be built on a qualitatively new basis - based on the mutual economic interest of the parties. At the same time, the traditions of previous relations have also been preserved: sincere good relations between the two peoples and respect for the long-standing common history linking the two states. The article was prepared on the basis of extensive Russian and Chinese sources, including materials and documents of the Legislative Assembly of St. Petersburg.
圣彼得堡立法议会开始关注其国际活动,从一开始就与中华人民共和国的城市和地区建立联系。自苏联时代以来,涅瓦河上的城市与中国之间就一直存在着紧密的联系,这在很大程度上促进了这种关系。在圣彼得堡代表的努力下,与双方的代表,包括中国的议会体制以及中国企业的关系,在双方的共同经济利益的基础上,开始在质的新基础上建立。同时,以前的关系传统也得到保留:两国人民之间真诚的良好关系,尊重两国之间长期的共同历史。本文是根据俄罗斯和中国的大量来文编写的,包括圣彼得堡立法议会的材料和文件。
